Fi at it's most basic is individualized attraction/repulsion.
Fi by definition is implicit and personal.
Rules are explicit and not necessarily personal.
An Fi person may be attracted to certain rules, but the rules themselves are NOT Fi.
An Fi person may push certain rules, but the pushing is NOT itself Fi.
A person may be attracted/repulsed from certain behaviors.
But those behaviors are NOT Fi.
The only thing that is Fi...is the attraction/repulsion....period.

I love Röyksopp.
I think their music is extensively Fi-based if you listen to the lyrics. There's also quite a lot of Ne there. I'd say at least one of the two members is an IEE. I have an IEE friend, and he loves them, because of the sounds, themes and general feels to the songs. If you listen to the first album, it sounds almost Ti or Ni valuing, which would contradict this idea. My LII friend loves Melody A.M. but thinks that The Understanding is shit. Aforementioned IEE friend loves both albums, and prefers The Understanding. I personally think it's more generic, and think that Melody A.M. is a gem of its genre.
By the way, that song is not the original (on Melody A.M.). The funny thing is, I can't find a video of the original, and both of the live performances on video I found are of that song. The single is different to the album one according to Wiki. IMHO, it's shitter than the album version.
I dunno. The vid makes me kind of somber. Like 'this is just what life is' kinda thing, like...another face in a crowd in a big city. I hate that feeling, which is also why I hate cities. I feel more magical in a small town with close friends, I feel like I'm making a difference more. I hate feeling like a cog in a machine. I want to be the most important part. Like the penis! Or something.

What do you think about this interpretation ofDiana
I think one of the best examples/illustrations ofis multiple standards. Because
is defined by the individuals bond with another individual, characteristics that describe/define the bond are individual as well, that is, certain things are allowed for certain people. For example, using
is when you allow somebody to kiss you, or when you criticize them for an action you wouldn't criticize somebody else (Even yourself). A real life example, an IEE friend of mine treats his family members as if they crap gold and yet he sees certain "breeds" of people as inferior, like certain nationalities, people within a certain profession and so on. For them there is extra scrutiny, mistrust, initial doubt and even self fulfilling prophecies. A ESI friend of mine is always "slapping people on the wrist" when they swear and yet has the mouth of a sailor. (Of course these examples are a tad bit extreme and negative, but they serve their purpose. They could also work the other way, considering humanity to be essentially good and thus treating all new people as you would treat good people, like for example religious missionaries)

I think there's some truth to this understanding ofOriginally Posted by dee
, but it's not coming from a
perspective, so it sounds false. "Rule" is not a
word at all -- that's the problem. A "rule" is something impersonal that applies to everyone regardless of their individual situation, feelings, and motives.
is about considering the individual situation, feelings, and motives of each person and adapting behavior accordingly. From a non-
quadra perspective it can seem that
types are applying "rules" of politeness (which of course seem restrictive to them), but in actuality
types are sensitive to each individual person and modify their behavior to fit the situation each time. What seems restrictive to non-
quadras is freedom to others.
It is easier for the eye of a camel to pass through a rich man than for a needle to enter the kingdom of heaven.

Well I never said anything about what kind of people they were. And when you think about it, any informational element is inherently neutral in terms of being "good" or "bad". It's what you make of them that are an expression of who you are, what kind of person you are. I'm sure these people, if they were other types, would be just as "bad" but simply through other means. But what I was trying to ask was whether the analysis of their usage of the elements is still valid theoretically despite the fact that one wouldn't readily approve of it, that is, is it an expression ofOriginally Posted by Diana
as an informational element?

Some of what we call "morals, etiquette, and social standards" are based on Fi values, some are based on Fe values, some are probably based on Se values, maybe Ti values, perhaps other things as well. Some social rules are regional or generational. In some cases a combination of factors are behind them. But social rules are not Fi.
I like this quoted description from Diana's post:
In some cases the appropriate response seems very much to line up with standard etiquette, but in some cases I feel a completely different response is appropriate. The point is that I don't consider etiquette rules when I make a decision. I look internally to decide what the appropriate response is. If it lines up with "standard etiquette rules" so be it, but it is not a motivator. And, what I consider an appropriate response to X might not seem like an appropriate response to X in two weeks, or a year, or whatever. It depends on a number of circumstances but it is not at all dependent upon some external rule or rules.Like Rick said, " Introverted Feeling is about considering the individual situation, feelings, and motives of each person and adapting behavior accordingly."
It's possible that some social etiquette rules were created or developed by people with Fi in the ego block, and maybe I'd be more likely to naturally follow those. But some etiquette rules I just plain disagree with. They might make sense to someone else but that person isn't living here, now, in my life, in my circumstances.

Since it seems pretty apparent at this point that Fi is all about rules (and nothing besides rules) how about we get a couple oftypes to list them all out here so that we can all keep the Fi's happy?
Diana and Ann can start since they seem be the ones most adament about us all accepting the Fi=rules definition...
No.Originally Posted by dee

sweet! thanks Diana, I think this concrete definition of the Fi rules is going to greatly further all of our socionics understandingOriginally Posted by Diana

No no no. There is nothing included about rules. We come up with our own INTERNAL ASSESSMENT that is completely unrelated to any external rules. It has nothing to do with any outside factors. No rules. None. If it lines up with someone's rules, it is coincidental. I hope that's clearer. But I bet you will continue to deliberately misinterpret me in an attempt to work it into your incorrect assumptions.Originally Posted by dee
